Abstract

A drive control for a vehicle to be operated by an operator is described. The vehicle includes motor drive means which are arranged to drive the vehicle wheels. Means (14) are provided responsive to an operator command for providing an electrical signal representative of a desired speed and direction for the vehicle. This means (14) including voltage means (44) of a variable voltage range moveable in response to an operator command and means for translating the speed signals into motor drive signals. In order to simplify design and the handling of the drive control one portion of the voltage range of the voltage means (44) provides a speed signal in the forward direction and another portion of the voltage range provides a speed signal in the reverse direction. A detector means is provided for identification of signals of a forward or reverse movement.
